Roads

Roads are the most convenient option if you do not have any ground or park around your home. But if you are opting to run on a road, make sure that you take all the safety measures for it. It is important that you choose a road which is less crowded and with less traffic. Because with vehicles moving all around the way, it doesn’t just become difficult to run but it becomes quite risky too. Also, run on the edges of the road and not the center and while you are running on a sharp turn decrease your speed a bit because you would not know what would be coming from the other end. Here are some roads that you might want consider on your next run.

Jungle Safari road

Jungle Safari Road

If you are already on the track of Dudhtalai and Pichola and want to do some more exercise, head on towards the Jungle Safari Road. It is usually less crowded and will give you good space to run with trees and greenery on both sides.

Tiger Hills

If you are a resident near to the area, consider running here once instead of going to Fatehsagar or Rani Road daily. The long stretches of usually empty roads and a small valley will give your leg a proper workout overall. On your way, you can also see Maharana Pratap’s huge statue at Pratap Gaurav Kendra.

Pannadhai road, Sector 14

This road begins from right opposite to the Saras Parlour from where one can be able to reach Pannadhai Museum. It overlooks Goverdhan Sagar and meets with the main road near to Goverdhan Garden which can possibly be your next destination.

100 feet road, Sector 3

A road which has been constructed recently has a good amount of length and width pretty appropriate for your morning walk or run. But make sure you are pretty careful here as a number of small and large vehicles come here on a daily basis. It would be better if you choose this road in the morning time only and not the evening time.
